Impressive in solo play, Wargame AirLand Battle is even more engaging online. The game features ultra-complete multiplayer modes, where up to 20 players do battle simultaneously!

Before reeding, please accepte that i have bad Englsih :) 90 hourse online and 300 offline game time.

Short: This game are taking the RTS in a new lvl and twist. Cause the game have made it massive and "smal" in the same time. I feel the developer have made it realistic and smoth. And I feel like i have the countroll over whats happening while playing.

Long: I go after 6 thing i going to rank. GIGS-CO

Gameplay: I find it realy great. It is many thing that bring it easy to play, but in same time funny to countrol. One eks: can give many comands; move fast, move, attack, spread, regroup, split. This is very importan when it comes to winning or losing. (You can say witch direction thay gonne stay at if you are holding in left mouse butten).

The zoom out and in fuction are working so well, and so smoth. Thats make it easy to play and fun. The redring is being well done. When both of this is working very well, It vil make the game play both funny and "easy".

Unit countrol is Good and Realistic. It is easy to control them when you have many ordes to control them with. And it realistic cause of many resons, eks. tank. fuel, accrresy, experience, ammo, speed on road and off road, optic, range, camuflage. All this are making the game realistic.

Tha combat system are very good. It is like in real life. Sitting in a tank. Does you see the enemy. shoot them or hold. Units does have moral and experience. That make them better or worse.

This Game does also have a very good AI. I have played likly 50 RTS. And many of them is very sad story. Couse of a bad AI, but a good game is ruind. Score 6/6

Interface:When you have played it a few hours. It will feel much better than the first hour. From my opinon, it was hard to know how thing work and wich unti and unittype tag was hard to learn. But after a few hours game time, It was much more easy to "use".

The tutorial is easy to step 3. Inantry. From here a person must use his brain in a very diffrent way. It took my 12 hours of skrimish and online to complete the last one.

The interface is a little hard to "accept" new players. Witch making it hard and boring the first hours. But when you have gone in to the system and gain some experience. Fun as *****. (sory for bad use of words :( ).Score 4/6

Grafic:The job is done well. Looking good on best grafic. The zoom in and out sn redring while playing is making the experience soo good. The terreng is flat. (mostly for making the gameplay better and more fun). If you zoom close in. The detail is HUGE! Everything from a soldier to a tank to houses, bringdes, houses, trees, grass and so on.Score 6/6

System Requirements:Find it a little high. Can be boring to have a bad Pc and playing and lagging so on... But for what of details and redring. I find it well optimased.Score 5/6

Campaign:Find it funny, and both easy and hard. It is alot of fun while playing. Both part is fun playing and alot of experience that helps to play online. I have read and fund out that people are complaining since it is a tima limmits on 20 min. I find it fine. Couse playing one match against the AI in 90min. Than I have likly 20 match agan... It is a good move from my opinon. 4.5/6

Online:Was funny to play, before the release of Red Dragon. But I fund the multiplayer funny and "hard". It is a little problem here and there. (mostly caused by players). But online is like offline = FUNNY! And the community, never try to join. Never going to either.4/6

Alright, let's get on with the fact that this game is AWESOME!!! This game is almost an exact replica of RUSE, except for a few mechanics that are overall different with the game. Wargame: Airland Battle is a sequel to the huge-hit of a strategy game called Wargame: European Escalation, which sets you on a collision course with the Warsaw Pact, an alliance of communist nations including Russia. You can play as either the PACT or NATO in an epic campaign to blow up your enemies before they destroy you. It has more units, WAY better graphics, and the new addition of jets. Anyway, let's get to the pros and the cons.

Pros:- It is easy to run this game on any computer. You can even run this on a laptop with decent graphics.- There is a HUGE unit variety. Each unit in every faction serves a purpose, and sometimes you will actually lose a battle because you don't have a specific unit.- There are 12 countries, all spread out through 2 factions.- There is a decent amount of gamemodes at your disposal.- The graphics are BEAUTIFUL if you have a computer able to handle ultra-high graphics.- There is no damage bar or health bar for your units. Instead, there is morale, which can be crushed by artillery and prolonged suppressive fire. And if your units are armored, like the M1A1 Abrams, it will be a tough time to even penetrate it's armor.- The strategy and tactics in this game are absolutely CRUCIAL to even get far into this game. You need to maintain a stable economy of supplies while at the same time sending more units out to kick some more ♥♥♥.- The sounds in this game are pretty good. The explosions sound like explosions, and the whistling of artillery shells and tank cannon shells wizzing by is extremely satisfying.- There is an enormous amount of effort for the units, as they look really good.- There is a suppressing mechanic, which if you fire artillery or something else at an enemy unit, they will be supressed, meaning they won't be able to move for a short time.- The best mechanic is probably the fact that once you lose a unit, you can't get it back for the rest of the game, so tactics to minimize your losses and maximize your kills is crucial for survival.- There is an actual fog of war mechanic, as every unit has a sight range. You will NEED scouts and recon units to scope out enemy units and to know what is happening most of the time.

Cons: (no game is without its defects)- This game is brutal to new players, as even the AI can catch you off guard if you aren't paying attention.- The Hud is a huge cluster♥♥♥♥ in large battles, you will be spending precious time trying to find your tank group in the middle of an apparently huge staging area for your allies while your forces get destroyed one by one.- The fact that there is no way to get back your units after they are destroyed.- The 'maintaining an economy' factor is more often than not overwhelming for noobs.- The fact that a group of weaker tanks are almost no match for a stronger tank. Armor is a factor, but eventually the armor has to give, right?

Overall, this is a complex but very fun strategy game. it's like RUSE, but with better graphics and a WAY bigger unit variety. Not to mention the fact that each country has it's own strengths and weaknesses. For instance, America seems to be the most balanced between maneuverability and firepower while being expensive, whereas the Russians are cheap, but pack a big punch. This game is the perfect game if you are a fan of RUSE or any other strategy game like this one.

I will rate this a 9/10. Only missing 10 because of the HUD and some other factors that are in question.

this game is not something you can easily pick up and play. Its hard to learn, and harder to master. But I love it. I lose every fight I get into, and I'm not very good at it. But I love it. I love this game because of the history, because of the music and the detailed maps and the many strategys and just being able to watch the battle happen. The replays bring out the art of the game, and let you expirience your own war story. I suck at it. I cant play it for my life. But I love this game for the storys I make in it.

Realistic, immersive, diverse and simply so much fun.There are so many ways that you can play this game and so many different kinds of units for you to master in controlling. Playing with or against friends in multiplayer is especially fun, with endless possiblities and intense combat. if you know how to use your units wisely you can destroy your opponents without losing a piece, if you don't you lose everything without killing anything.

Requires time investment in studying units but once you get into it, you will be amazed

Not sure why peeps are saying it's hard to learn... I found it very easy to learn.. but definately hard to master. Great RTS with modern military units and equipment.. For those who love to fantasise how a conventional World War 3 would have looked.. this is for you!

Coming from being a console gamer with a obsession with RTS, this game blew my mind. Best strategy game ive ever played, super realistic, I always love improving my decks and strategies. Gotta love Stealth Bombers.

The only con I have is that is crashes suprisingly often if you do anything else. Alt-TAB? Crash, somone disconnected from the game due to sudden loss of connection? Crash. And the thing that annoys me most is most of these crashes arent just crashes, they force you to restart your computer, task manager will not shut the game down to allow you to relaunch it. Even after months of these same crashes, its still not fixed.

again, not too common, but when it happens its very frustrating. Even with the issue its not even close enough to prevent me from playing the game often and enjoying it.

Great RTS with modern military units and equipment. Game is similar to ruse but a lot different. This isnt just your average rts game where you buy units and go head on head with enemies, Doing this with make you lose. It takes a lot of ambushing the enemies and approching them from the front and side. You can have units from foot, ground, and air. The maps are really big. Dont forget your troops can run out of fuel, break engine parts, and run out of ammo. I highly recommend the series of wargame!

Very good game, especially for strategic geeks. It's complex game with tons of cold war equipment. Icing on the cake is multiplayer mode with pretty live community - I stronglly recommended that piece of art !!

well im not gunna lie i've played rts games sincei was a kid and after finally getting a decent pc i've got this. My god its like any rts i have ever played. Despite it being hard whn you first play it as i had no idea what the heck i was doing, after a few hours starting to get the jist.

Pro's: massive maps 4v4 games ( can be with or without ai)a ♥♥♥♥ ton of vehcles which are all real units with real specs!several game modes, ( destructin is a favourite)highlty detailed each game is completly different so it won't get dullexplosions everywhere!!

Cons:the only main one is not having infite units which is good and bad. Good so you don't spam op units bad side is once there dead, they are dead and you may have a few spare. needs more explosions!

I am still amazed at how this game is its just amazing and mind blowing. If you are wiling to learn how to play it decent then i highly recommend it!!

I really enjoyed this game, but it takes a whilte to get use to. If you're a slow learner then this game won't be very good for you. The online matchmaking could be better, the campaign could be better too, either I'm stupid or I sat on the campaign map for 20 minutes trying to figure it out. But over all the game is pretty fun when you know what you're doing, if you want a modern military strategy game, either for campaign or Multiplayer against other people then get this.
